Rowing Clinic – Saturday 9 AM at MDF

We are really lucky to have Kelly Powers, who trains at CrossFit Oakland give us a rowing clinic this Saturday at 9 AM at MDF. Please sign up at the gym by 8 PM Wednesday eve.

After the basics of body positioning in catch/drive/finish/recovery, she will touch on the relationship between stroke rate and power output.

Kelly is level one CrossFit trainer and has taken the Olympic lifting course as well. She’s been doing CrossFit for two years, but started training as competitive swimmer in high school. She changed to rowing at the University of Miami (starboard bow seat in 1986). She was was on the women’s lightweight 8 boat that won the Dad Vail (collegiate national championship) in 1987. She still loves rowing and is happy about any WOD that has her on the ergs.
